With these reviews I'm thinking it's staying in the low 80's maybe even 90's on RT. No matter what these reviews are adding to the already insane hype. Edit: Starting out with a 73 on Metacritic.

Yeh my twitter timeline is flooded with positive reviews (THR, Variety, Empire, Deadline, Guardian, EW). 

 

Still not reading any full reviews though. I ever usually do. 

 

Happy to see a positive reaction though.

The few reviews i have seen this morning here in Denmark have been good. Nothing spectacular but still positive and solid

So good start. Its going to have a great OD and 4 day weekend here

3/3 on RT

Review: 'It' does justice to freaky horror and youthful zest of Stephen King's novel

[somebody85]

Screen Junkies liked it (turned it off there)

All looking good so far. Late embargo doesn't seem to indicate quality issues.

Why did Warners wait til 2am to lift the embargo? Most of these reviews are fine.

Already up to a 74 on Metacritic

May be for the last hype-push before release.

 

 

Aaaaand this is WB. They always has late embargo (with some rare exceptions).

I said it before, a late embargo doesn't mean good or bad with WB. They just don't like to allow super early reviews 90% of the time. Any other Studio would have had say Wonder Woman's reviews out two weeks before it came out.

 

Most of the reviews being decent to good does not surprise me. Stop looking into WB's standard late embargoes. Lol

While there's no score yet RT is 5/5 meaning we're starting at 100%

It's WB usual MO.

I think the way they do it is great. Let the social media embargo drop early and get people talking about it, and then again people talk about the film when the reviews drop a week later. Instead of just dropping the reviews 2 weeks out. Sometimes the hype can die down or it can back fire. See Warcraft, Xmen Apocalypse, War for the Planet, even Civil War to a degree.

Thankyou! Believe me I was annoyed and leery about Wonder Woman's somewhat late embargo but I calmed down after talking to others. I realized that that's just the way WB works.

73 on Metacritic with 12 reviews. http://www.metacritic.com/movie/it

Yeah I learned after Fury Road to not worry about late WB embargoes.

Plus the reactions from the social media embargo were universally positive
